    Author: Zhu CZ, Zhang WG, Zhou GH, Xu XL, Kang ZL, Yin Y.
    Journal: J Agric Food Chem; 2013 Feb 13; 61(6):1265-71. PubMed ID: 23350783.
    Abstract:
    The antioxidant activities of the peptides extracted from Jinhua ham were evaluated on the basis of hydroxyl radical scavenging activity, DPPH radical scavenging activity, and Fe(2+) chelating ability. The peptide extracts exhibited great hydroxyl radical scavenging activity and DPPH radical scavenging activity as well as Fe(2+) chelating ability at the concentration of 1 mg/mL, which suggested the presence of peptides with antioxidant activity. The peptides were separated using size exclusion chromatography and reversed-phase HPLC. The fraction with highest DPPH radical scavenging activity was further purified and identified using liquid chromatography tandem matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight/time-of-flight mass spectrometry (HPLC-MALDI-TOF/TOF-MS). The sequence of the antioxidant peptide was identified as Gly-Lys-Phe-Asn-Val. The assessment of fractions indicated that the hydrophobic fractions contributed more to free radical scavenging activities than the hydrophilic peptides. It was concluded that natural peptides extracted and isolated from the Jinhua ham by several chromatographic techniques have antioxidant activities.
